Seven Months Out!

Here is us with the mini missionary right before he left.

MOMMA!!!

Sounds like ammon is having a great time in 6th grade! Is he excited to go to junior high school? And of course he rocked the house with the worm!!! Good times! So, I guess somthing new here in Richmond is that Celeste's mom started investigating, but she is pretty devout to her faith, so we'll see how that goes. Also Saturday night Celeste told us that she just broke it off with her fiance and she isn't doing to well, and he is the one that introduced her to the church so we hope she puts her trust in God and keeps moving forward.

This week did go by super fast, I remember on Saturday we went to visit this family that has 3 boys in the YSA, 2 a little less active, and we get there and it had felt like we just stopped by the other day, but it was actually a week ago that we had stopped by so that was weird. We are working with Esperanza and her family and they are doing alright. And then we are teaching Alex from the YSA who is dating the Spanish Ward's bishop's daughter, haha. And he's doing alright, his mom is Catholic so he doesn't want to join and then "abandon" her because he feels like that is what he would be doing, which is understandable.

I did get the package with my treats thank you, and the goldfish were very nice I'm still working on them and on the m&ms so thank you for that!! I think I am good for right now, maybe a nice umbrella? idk if the rain season is passing, but I always come across broken umbrellas which are great so ya that would be cool but its probably not worth sending a whole other package haha. But ya it rains every now and then but its not too bad so I'm good:)

So this week we got to go to the temple for a recent convert testimony thing called Porque Yo Creo (why i believe) and Celeste was going to speak but wasn't feeling up to it, but we really wanted to go and we found someone! This girl Rosa has been inactive for about 2 years-ish and she approched some English missionaries and asked if they spoke Spanish and so those missionaries got us her information and she came to church on Sunday and then later that day we invited her to come with us and she did and it was a jolly good time! But ya it was a pretty good week! I'll try and send some pics in a second!! Love you!!!!
